Jour 10 | L'abus n'est pas de l'amour | Apprends à reconnaître les les signes

Parfois, il est difficile d'établir quelle est la frontière entre la confiance, l'amour et l'abus. Reconnais les signes. Fais la promotion du respect. C'est ton droit de vivre pleinement et librement. Rejette le comportement de contrôle qui peut conduire à une relation abusive. Réapproprie-toi la technologie!

La violence domestique et la violation provenant d'un partenaire sexuel se passent dans toutes sortes de relations, que celles-ci soient de couples hérétorosexuels ou homosexuels. Cela arrive dans toutes les tranches d'âge, des jeunes aux vieux, indépendamment de l'ethnie, de la religion ou du statut économique. Le seul facteur commun est que les femmes et les filles sont en prédominance les personnes qui subissent les abus de leurs partenaires.

Día 10 | El abuso no es amor | Conoce las señales

A veces resulta difícil trazar la línea que separa confianza, amor y abuso. No toleres abusos. Reconoce las señales, construye una comunidad de apoyo y toma el control de la tecnología para terminar con la violencia hacia las mujeres.

La violencia doméstica y el abuso ejercido por la pareja ocurren en todo tipo de relaciones, heterosexuales o de parejas del mismo sexo. Sucede en todas las franjas etarias, de jóvenes a viejos, más allá de la etnicidad, la religión o el estatus económico. El único factor común es que las personas que sufren con mayor frecuencia abuso de sus parejas son las mujeres y las jóvenes. 

Day 10 | Abuse isn't love | Know the signs

Sometimes it's hard to draw the line between trust, love and abuse. Know the signs. Promote respect. It's your right to live your life fully and freely. Reject controlling behaviour that can lead to an abusive relationship. Take back the tech!

Domestic violence and intimate partner abuse happens in all kinds of relationships, whether heterosexual or same sex couples. It occurs in all age ranges, from young to old, regardless of ethnicity, religion or economic status. The only common factor is that women and girls are predominantly the people who face abuse by their partners, with between 10 and 60 percent of women  having faced intimate partner violence in their lifetime according to UN WomenWatch.

Day 5 | 29 Nov - International Day on Women Human Rights Defenders | Violence is not our culture!

Exercise your right to expression and claim your space to define a culture that is empowering and free from violence against women. Reject the notion that violence in any form is part of our culture, religion, or traditions. Violence is not our culture!

Today is the International Day on Women Human Rights Defenders. To mark this event, we call for actions to support the work of women human rights defenders to demand the end of violence against women justified in the name of "culture", "religion" or "tradition". Take back the tech! Declare our culture as free from violence against women! Support the "Violence is Not Our Culture" global campaign!
